Condolences

Condolence From: DICK AND MARYHESS
Condolence: Growing up in Honduras, the missionary circle was always with close families that James and Rhoda were part of. Realized how special their calling was as they entered areas that had historically had no evangelical influence. Tough, but faithfully they served. Mary and I were treated by James so generously when we went down to La Ceiba at such young premature age soon after we had married. It felt so good to have people like my parents give us the hospitality the way they did. Also was very memorable to serve with James here in the Miami area to help with the new churches that he nurtured in the area that still exist today. The picture I still have in my mind today of James, is him in our Honduran hammock in the back porch of our house here in Homestead in their last visits here. I'll treasure the dialogues the we had in recent years and the opportunity to glean the wisdom that he openly shared.

My heart is sadden for the passing of a great man of God. Don Jaime you have been a true light in my path. A true ambassador of good news. You played a significant role in my life. You were our counselor when we needed direction during our courtship. Your counsel was not your own but based in the Bible which satisfied our souls. You preached at our wedding and in my mind and heart resound your words,"cuidado con la sue-Guerra" An important point to help us understand our new position as a couple. Oh how admirable and precious your life was to all of us.

Condolence: My thoughts and prayers are with you as you go through this time of grief and loss. May God comfort you with the expectant hope of a home in Heaven where you will be reunited with James.
James was a counselor and a spiritual mentor to me at a time in my life where I was searching and seeking to find healing from depression and anxiety following a work "burnout" experience.
He was a vital part of my recovery, helping me find balance and truth and helping me to anchor my should in Jesus. Hebrews 6:19-20
